Mr. Rogers' Trolley - Magical
red and yellow miniature street car that travels into the
Neighborhood of Make Believe on episodes of the
children's program MISTEROGERS' NEIGHBORHOOD/PBS/1967-75/1979-2000.

Mister Rogers uses the trolley to introduce his viewers to the
Neighborhood of Make-Believe, a magical and where the theme of the
day is explored.

To enter the Neighborhood of Make Believe, the Trolley travels long
an electrified track into a tunnel in the wall of Mister Rogers'
house. The camera fades to black and returns with a scene of the
trolley entering the Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

Citizens of the special place included:

Queen Sara Saturday

Prince Tuesday

Lady Elaine Fairchilde (who ran the Museum-Go-Round)

Henriette Pussycat

voices of the these characters are provided by Mr. Rogers, but he is
never seen.

When its time to leave the Neighborhood of Make Believe, the trolley
once again travels through the tunnel to an awaiting Mr. Rogers.

Fans of the show who miss Fred Rogers, can find solace in riding a
larger that life Trolley that resides in the Mr. Rogers' inspired
Neighborhood of Make-Believe section of the Idlewild Amusement Park
in Ligonier, Pennsylvania southeast of Pittsburgh. All Aboard!
